Donald Sterling was banned from the NBA for life in 2014 after a recording of a conversation between himself and Stiviano was published by TMZ. The tape featured racist comments from Sterling, who told Stiviano not to bring Black people to Clippers games.

FX says "Clipped" will "chart the collision between a dysfunctional basketball organization and even less functional marriage, and the precipitating tape's impact on an ensemble of characters striving to win against the backdrop of the most cursed team in the league."

The series, which is based on the ESPN 30 for 30 podcast "The Sterling Affairs," premieres June 4 exclusively on Hulu.
